Numerical Analysis of Motorcycle Suspension System
Journal Title: Machine Design - Year 2017, Vol 9, Issue 1
Abstract
A shock absorber is the main part of a vehicle suspension system. This mechanical device has a role to reduce the bumpy road shocks and enable a more comfortable ride. In this study we investigated the behavior of a shock absorber, that is installed on the motocycle, with three different material of helical springs. 3D model was created using Catia v5 r18. Numerical simulation was done by Ansys workbench 12.0. The results of von Mises stress, deformation and shear stress, in the case of three different materials of coil spring, are analyzed and presented.
